Museum-Worthy CHANEL Spring/Summer 1991 "Candy Button" Bonbons Skittles M&M Belt Necklace - Seen on Miley Cyrus - One of Karl Lagerfeld's Most Iconic Archive Jewels

Among the rarest and most coveted Chanel fantasy jewels ever created by Karl Lagerfeld.

Rare Museum-Worthy Chanel 1991 "Skittles" "M&M"Candy Button Belt Necklace - Seen on Miley Cyrus in Midnight Sky

An iconic precursor to Chanel's celebrated Spring/Summer 1992 "Pills" collection, the Spring/Summer 1991 Candy Button Belt Necklace represents Karl Lagerfeld's earliest exploration of playful Pop Art-inspired resin accessories. Together, these two collections have become some of the most coveted archival Chanel jewels ever created.

No other example is currently publicly offered on the international market at the time of listing.

An extraordinary and highly collectible Chanel 1991 Candy Button Belt Necklace, one of Karl Lagerfeld's most whimsical and instantly recognizable archival creations.

 Crafted from oversized glossy resin "candy" discs in vibrant rainbow hues-red, blue, green, yellow, orange, purple and black-each button is adorned with an applied gold-tone CC logo and connected by substantial gold-tone links. The result is a bold sculptural jewel that blurs the line between fashion accessory and wearable art.

Designed as a versatile belt necklace, this spectacular piece can be styled in multiple ways: worn long as a statement necklace, wrapped as a belt, or displayed as a true collector's archive piece.

Its joyful Pop Art aesthetic has earned collectors the nicknames "Skittles", "M&M", and "Candy Button" necklace, making it one of the most sought-after Chanel resin creations from the early 1990s. It perfectly reflects Karl Lagerfeld's playful reinvention of Chanel during this era, when bold accessories became central to the House's identity.

This iconic design was notably worn by Miley Cyrus in the music video for "Midnight Sky," introducing a new generation of collectors to one of Chanel's most exuberant archive jewels.

An exceptionally scarce collector's piece that rarely appears on the market, especially in such impressive scale.

Condition: Excellent vintage condition overall with beautiful glossy resin and rich gold-tone hardware.

Please note that one blue resin candy bead is missing its applied gold-tone CC logo, while the remainder of the piece is complete. This minor cosmetic detail does not affect wearability, historical significance or the exceptional rarity of this museum-worthy collector's piece.

One blue candy button is missing its tiny CC applique
